Evil Returns to Howl-O-Scream at SeaWorld San Antonio With five haunted houses & six terror-tories™, Howl-O-Scream® offers the most scares in Texas for one price

SAN ANTONIO (August 16, 2016) — This fall, for 15 select nights, no soul is safe from SeaWorld® San Antonio’s Howl-O-Scream. San Antonio’s premier Halloween event features more than 30 acres of tormenting surprises and unexpected terrors around every corner, with three new terror-tories™ and a brand new haunted house featuring a bone-chilling backstory and a disturbing cast of demon dolls. This year’s theme, Evil Encore, is inspired by childhood toys gone horribly wrong as a troupe of demon dolls take on a life of their own. Once the charming creations of “Mr. Karver,” the dolls of Karver’s Kradle have developed an insatiable hunger for souls. Now these dolls are on the prowl. Citizens are urged to be on the lookout for Alfred, one of Mr. Karver’s most sinister dolls, who we fear will soon be out and about in San Antonio wreaking . San Antonians are encouraged to be alert and help track Alfred’s whereabouts at #HowlOScreamTX and on Facebook, HowlOScreamSATX. Helping to find Alfred and getting him back to Karver’s Kradle will have its rewards. Howl-O-Scream’s Kreeptails Howl-O-Scream returns Friday, Sept. 30 for select nights through Sunday, Oct. 30.
